Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are concerned with improvements to Doppler radar systems, and are suitable for use with frequency scanning radar systems. In one arrangement the improvements are embodied in a frequency scanning radar controller for use in controlling a frequency generator; the frequency generator is arranged to generate a plurality of sets of signals, each set of signals having a different characteristic frequency and comprising a plurality of signals transmitted at a selected rate, and the radar controller is arranged to select the rate in dependence on the characteristic frequency. The invention can be embodied in a pulsed radar, for which each set of signals comprises a set of pulsed signals and each pulsed signal is repeated at a selected repetition rate. The radar controller is then arranged to modify the repetition rate in dependence on the characteristic frequency of the pulsed signal. The invention can alternatively be embodied in a frequency modulated radar system, for which each set of signals comprises a sequence of modulation patterns. The radar controller is then arranged to modify a given modulation pattern in dependence on the characteristic frequency of the signal being modulated.

Abstract: A system for opto-pyrometric tissue temperature monitoring in real time. The system is adapted for cardiac ablation and tissue temperature measurement, having a catheter having a tip electrode adapted for RF ablation of cardiac tissue and an optical collector whose distal end is received in an opening formed in the tip electrode to detect black body radiation from the cardiac tissue. The system includes an optical detection system in communication with the optical collector, the optical processing system processing signals representative of a wavelength of at least a portion of the black body radiation to determine a tissue temperature. The incorporation of an optical collector within a catheter tip permits real time monitoring of tissue temperature during ablation and lesion formation to prevent critical thresholds in temperature associated with events that can damage tissue, including steam pop, thrombus, char, etc.

Granted: 2015-07-14
Abstract: A cast structural connector connects a structural member, such as a hollow structural section (HSS) or wide flange (W) section member, to a structural frame. The connector is particularly suited for lateral bracing and includes a first end configured to receive the structural member and be welded to the structural member, a second end for connecting to the structural frame, and an intermediate portion. The first end includes bevelling allowing compatibility with structural members of varying sizes and enabling complete joint penetration welding thereby developing the full axial strength of the structural member. The intermediate portion provides for transmission of forces as the frame deforms, for example, under severe seismic conditions, and can include a flexural plastic hinge portion. The connector can be welded to the structural frame or connected by a standard fabricated end connection, such as a gusset plate. Casting manufacturing allows for mass production of the connector.

Abstract: A perforating system has a perforating module comprising a unitary body of explosive. The explosive is contained within a non-explosive casing, or liner, having formed indentations and a cover thereover. The indentations, which will transform into explosively formed penetrators (EFP's) upon detonation, have a perimeter shape that allows for improved packing density, e.g., a hexagonal perimeter, which results in relatively little "dead space" wherein no perforating penetrators are generated. In operation, the module provides a relatively dense shot pattern and substantially reduced amount of post-detonation debris that could clog the perforations and/or require remedial clean-up or repeat perforation.
